fear....your worst enemy

Fear...it can tear you up..bit by bit...Do not let it in, do not. No matter what. This is a fight you should never back down unless it teaches you respeckt like for youre God :)
I can say i have many fears, and they can make me sooo sad.But i wont let it in and destroy this happiness im experiencing now.i wont...if i have fear, i know, i have to take action somewhere and face it.....be a warrior, shewolf..whatever you want to be....
but facing it, you must....step 1....
Admit it....Believe it is there but wont be longer. it might be stronger than you , but it does not have your soul and will......
 Step 2
Believe in yourself.  Know who you are and set your goals and dreams. Fear might come in the way, and you have to once again realise that and think about what you are going to do about it. Be a little bit "selfish" if must, but out of love...you gotta figure out a plan of action that will work for you.
 
Step 3
Time to take action. Some people go with the Nike saying and just do it :) This i have lived by numerous times, but sometimes you might want to consider checking your time. it depends on your situation. If you are stuck and all relies on you and your safety, id say go all Nike....But if you  have the chance to sit and speak about it, then choose the correct moment and talk about it. Sometimes you are lucky, and that moment happens to you, that person comes to you and gives you the oppertunity to open your heart and let that fear out....But if not, you have to take action to survive, to find happiness and a better life. Planning is essential.
Please note, getting some inspiration and motivation  is crutial. Talk about your fears to someone you trust. Giving your heart a breather. Ds can really be usefull this way, so dont be afraid to let go and if you need to scream, let it out, sing...does not matter :)
Dont think you are alone. Dont. Teach yourself patience, for it will make you wise. Teach yourself to be humble, for so you learn to be strong when the world pushes you to your knees.... You pray....... Learn a Greater Love, do not ever give up on love for it is all one has left at the end of the day. I promise you, someone is out there and they are waiting to love you, or they do love you and want to see you happy.
Im learning everyday too....and i can say i have overcome a great fear in my life...AND now i can make MORE space for love :) ANd it feels sooo gooooood :) and totally worth it :P
If anyone has any more tips regarding this, i would love to hear your response, thoughts and concerns even  :)
Love
Chrissi

\"When things get bad and you can\'t stand to look
It\'s time to read to the end of the book
Don\'t put it down \'til you get to the end
When Jesus come and His Kingdom begins\"

Some encouraging quotes from life\'s instruction manual:
2 Timothy 1:7
For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.

2 Corinthians 5:6-8
6 So we are always confident, knowing that while we are at home in the body we are absent from the Lord. 7 For we walk by faith, not by sight. 8 We are confident, yes, well pleased rather to be absent from the body and to be present with the Lord.

John 10:25 Jesus answered them... 27 My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me. 28 And I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; neither shall anyone snatch them out of My hand. 29 My Father, who has given them to Me, is greater than all; and no one is able to snatch them out of My Fathers hand. 30 I and My Father are one.

Philippians 1:21
For to me, to live is Christ, and to die is gain.

Philippians 4:8 Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthymeditate on these things.

Jeremiah 29:11 For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the LORD, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope. 12 Then you will call upon Me and go and pray to Me, and I will listen to you. 13 And you will seek Me and find Me, when you search for Me with all your heart.

Romans 8:31 What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? 32 He who did not spare His own Son, but delivered Him up for us all, how shall He not with Him also freely give us all things? 33 Who shall bring a charge against Gods elect? It is God who justifies. 34 Who is he who condemns? It is Christ who died, and furthermore is also risen, who is even at the right hand of God, who also makes intercession for us. 35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? 37 Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us. 38 For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come, 39 nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
